paulsbrown Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 I got mine from Hobbyeasy a couple weeks ago, quick service. It's a spectacular kit, I've built 14 1/48 Flankers and this build will take some time as there are a lot of tiny parts and details. Finally these new kits (+GWH) are including the wealth of under canopy ducting and details as well as wheel well accuracies which save a lot of time and money on scratch building and aftermarket. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, the whole kit does look daunting. However, having built 5 Sol canard Flanker conversions including the Su-33 I'm very happy with these new kits and their amazing level of accurate details. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocoolname Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 It looks like the 1/48 aircraft equivalent of the Bandai 1/72 PG Falcon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I've just finished the review for this one, and it's a doozy. I've never seen so much detail on an aircraft kit before. Some of the parts are tiny, but those, the PE parts and the clever moulds just makes for an awesome looking kit. Have a read - it's a long review too! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homebee Posted March 18, 2021 Author Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) The Chinese Navy Su-33 also known as the Shenyang J-15 Fēishā or "Flanker-X2" is reported coming soon - ref. 800?

Their overall profile is very similar but there are different in details. According to the current MINIBASE standard, it is estimated that about 25% of new parts will be needed to achieve the J-15 design goal. Source: https://tieba.baidu.com/p/7302324621?pn=1 V.P.

I wonder if they will include parts for the J-15T with CATOBAR ("Catapult Assisted Take-Off But Arrested Recovery" or "Catapult Assisted Take-Off Barrier Arrested Recovery")?

The Su-33 designation was originally used (unofficially) by Mikhail P. Simonov to underline how different the naval variant was from the base variant. Only when the Su-27K went into service the name Su-33 was officially chosen. Based on the box art I would guess this boxing will cover the early marking variants (Blue 109/T-10K-9 was the final prototype). The first boxing already had the parts (instrument panel) for the early/non-upgraded machines, so I guess the plastic will be the same.

Shorty84 Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 A pity the Moskit missile was never cleared for the Su-33 and this was just an airshow loadout. But if they provide a missile cart to display it on its own, this would be nice. Although I said to myself I don't need another Sea Flanker, the Moskit puts this resolution in doubt...except someone would part with the missile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
